Pre-purchase car inspection.

$150

Eastwood SA, Australia

26th Jan 2025

Hi guys, Looking for a (preferred) mechanic to do a pre-purchase inspection on a Mazda 3 MPS located in Eastwood, SA. I'm located in Melbourne, VIC, and this is why I'm requesting this inspection remotely. Most important to me are: - Checking of service history legitimacy - Potential roadworthy items which I may be required to fix once I get it back to Victoria - Any potential mechanical issues, so preferred knowledge on known issues for this model is preferred - Interior and exterior inspection - making sure to note any paint chips, scratches, torn carpet, scuffs on trims or missing trims etc. Thanks, Harley.

He's a legend. Was very prompt and made it super easy for me as I live in another state. Gave him 3 hours notice to do the job and he still did it, which I very much appreciated. He gave a fairly well detailed physical report and a verbal discussion relating to my issues and concerns. Very professional, would use again. Cheers legend.
